Throughout Vosj’s history, there has never been a Madam Mage because the kings of antiquity have always forbidden women to practice wizardry. So, when Otanic’s grand wizard, Preem the Bone Crusher, visits Brodia’s home village, her only hope is for the daunting wizard to select her boyfriend. Maybe then she can escape with him to find adventure.

But things don’t go as she planned. The northern wizards are preparing to invade, so Preem is desperate to find that one boy in a thousand who can become his novice and protect his back. When he detects latent talent in a strange boy, he persists in finding this reluctant boy’s identity only to discover an audacious teenage farm girl.

However, the king’s edict bans female novices. Dare he risk being outlawed by King Attim as he tries to save his realm? Besides, he has no idea how to work with women, so he should pass on this chance.
